Can you change the moisture content in popcorn?
If the unpopped popcorn is too dry, it will not pop, as it is the pressure from steam building up inside the popcorn shell which makes it pop. To remoisten dried out popcorn one could try to put the popcorn in a plastic bag or airtight container in the fridge with some slices of raw potato. The moisture from the potato slices should then evaporate and get absorbed by the popcorn.

I have seen many questions on other sites asking about frozen popcorn. here's the rules, there are three main components of popcorn.
1 a hard outer shell
2 the carbohydrate which is the white fluffy part
3 the moisture inside
in order for popcorn to be frozen and be any good is, that it must be frozen from an unopened pack of plain kernels that was vacuum pack. without vacuum packing you lose the moisture need to make the kernel pop open
It then must be popped by oil only not with the microwave so its has to be the plain old fashion popcorn. remember on some products brand name matters and popcorn kernels do. Has to do with processing and the strict quality controls of moisture levels
popcorn pops because of the type of kernel it is, it had a very hard outer shell than other types of kernels because of this the moisture which ideally is about 13% of the weight of the kernel. as the kernel heats up the moisturise starts to vaporize which causes increased pressure in the kernel until its burst. Improper freezing will cause 3 problems. the first is loss of the actual moisture and the second is because of the moisture loss the carbohydrate part doesn't get completely changed structurally Thirdly freezing already popped kernels allows moisture to rebuild in the carbohydrate and when enough has accumulated u get freezer burn because ice crystals form and they are very sharp pointy molecules which poke holes and damage the carbohydrate part

How do you pop popcorn in a microwave besides the brown paper bag method?
You can use one of those special plastic containers that are marketed for making popcorn in a microwave.
You can also use a paper bag. Make sure the bag is big enough to contain the popped corn. Put about half a cup of popping corn in the bag, fold the top closed and use some tape to keep it closed. You can also use a plastic clip but make sure there is no metal in the clip. Place bag in microwave. Use the Highest setting for about 3 minutes. When the popping sound slows down to about every 3-5 seconds, it should be done. Turn off the microwave. Be careful removing and opening the bag as it can be very hot.

Popcorn was first discovered thousands of years ago by Native Americans in North America. One of the oldest forms of corn, evidence of popcorn from 3600 B.C. was found in New Mexico. The English who came to America in the 16th and 17th centuries learned about popcorn from the Native Americans.
During the Great Depression popcorn was comparatively cheap at 5-10 cents a bag and became popular. Thus, while other businesses failed, the popcorn business thrived and became a source of income for some struggling farmers. During World War II, sugar rations diminished candy production, causing Americans to eat three times more popcorn than they had before.
